I really wish you knew what he is capable of before you entertained him in your life as I had the littlest of an idea when we started out. All I saw were his good sides, I was so into him I never heeded the advice from my friends. However, six months of marriage made me see the whole picture of him.

The Hiker
A wishing well had caused quite a stir in Sonador. It was located within Sonador’s untouched forest. It was rumored that whoever wished at the well would have their desire come true—if they could look directly into the water and see both their reflection and their wish. Many were happy upon looking. Some wished for…
The Painter
I propped my canvas to the stand. The oil paint already in the palette, black and white to create the perfect shades and hues, some red, blue, and yellow. Today, I’ll be painting the couple giggling below the pine tree. They were both sitting with their backs resting on the tree’s trunk. The gal rested…
The Moviegoers
The presentation has not yet started, the power point is still at the first slide showing the points of discussion during the meeting today. I don’t understand why we have this weekly event but I am the most excited. Name tags were placed on where everyone is expected to seat. My desk is right across…
The Applicant

The Probie

The Rebel
I breathed in the cold air as I slowly walked towards you. This place was much grassier. There were no fences and definitely not this overcrowded. The place has changed so much since. ********** A mi amor Maria Eliza, I can never forget how me met. It was 1925 when Mayor E. J. Halsema had…
The Volunteer
That moment was something I would always treasure. “Do at least one good deed a day.”
The Girlfriend (Part 2 of 3)
I can feel the soft bed. Eyes still closed, my hands searched for Farneg—but he was not on the bed. A sudden rush of emotions overcame me, thinking about what had happened the night before. Was it wrong? Should we have waited? Right now, all I know is that I love him. He was sitting…
The Dreamer (Part 1 of 3)
The child looked at me and cackled. I held her gently in my arms as I made funny faces at her. She was such a sweet angel—innocent… and she was mine. My blood, my eyes. It was early morning, and everyone was still asleep. The crowing roosters hadn’t disturbed them—except for Ina and me. Ina…
